All this despite the fact that the crowd in the soccer stadium was almost triple then GM place's capacity.
There was propably at least triple the security too. For instance, major league soccer games in Europe often have a line of security people sitting between the crowd and the field, facing towards the crowd. Makes watching over the crowd much easier than how things typically are at hockey arenas.
